Immunogen

A synthetic peptide from the c-terminal region of rat Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the immunogen. The antigen is homologous in human and rat.

Isotype

IgG

Specificity

Specific for PCNA.

Target Details PCNA

Target Details PCNA

Function: This protein is an auxiliary protein of DNA polymerase delta and is involved in the control of eukaryotic DNA replication by increasing the polymerase's processibility during elongation of the leading strand. Involvement in disease: Antibodies are present in sera from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. Also known as: Cyclin, DNA polymerase delta auxiliary protein, Polymerase delta accessory protein, Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen.

Handling

Handling

Reconstitute in 150 µL of sterile water. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material.

Handling Advice

Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.

Storage

4 °C/-20 °C

Storage Comment

Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at -20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.
